Chrome - Nope, the Bags Not the Google.

Chrome Bags in San Francisco likes a lot of stuff we like...this dope-ass MOTORHEAD MESSENGER BAG, and we hang in the same circles. A moment of love, shall we?

Earlier this month their marketing dude, Sharkey, sent out this email so 'ey, yo, eh I am posting. It's the internets:

'In October Gabe Morford (responsible for the videos linked below) and I flew out to NYC for the weekend to ride bikes and push skateboards. On Saturday we met up with Cardiel and Igei and decided to just cruise around Manhattan and Brooklyn. Cards was on the hunt for some vinyl...got some fresh squeezed juice from a spot in Crown Heights and ended up at Prospect Park for beers by the lake.

On Sunday Cardiel went his own way and we skated from Igei's spot in Brooklyn to the subway into Manhattan, hopped a train at Penn Station and headed to Philly to meet up with Bobby Worrest for Game 2 of the playoffs between the Philies and the Giants. Bobby got his East Coast victory for the night...but we all know what happened in the end. (the track on this one is a Tommy G. original)

All of us believe in the companies we work for and the products we're pushing...otherwise we should find something else to do with our time. One of the greatest benefits that comes with this is being able to spend a couple of days with good friends and talented people. Good to see you all fellas...Till next time.'

About This Blog

My name is Nikki and I’m a life-long wearer of Vans.

In the interest of full disclosure, I work at Vans in the marketing department. I created this blog simply because there are so many cultural happenings surrounding Vans that I see everyday on the Web but nowhere to cull them all together. Basically, I look for people who use Vans (in some form) to express themselves or news following that same thread and aesthetic.

This isn’t the blog to ask me for a job, to hit me up for free kicks, or to tell me that you tore a hole in your jacket. Please don’t bother because this ain’t the “Ask Nikki Advice Column,” nor a replacement for the Vans Customer Service department, of which I have no part. And of course, thoughts and opinions expressed on this page are mine and mine alone, but I like it that way…
